Since the fire happened, the restaurant has continued trading in other parts of the city.

It first opened an outlet at The Post House on Victoria Street - which hosts a number of restaurants and bars in one building.

And recently it has set up and been serving food at the Queenies Tea Room near Quarndon.

But now the business is preparing for its homecoming.

A post on The Palfrey's Facebook page says: "Exciting News! We have had a fantastic month at Queenies of Quarndon and are so grateful to them for giving us the opportunity to serve there.

"The journey is not over though, as due to popular demand we have decided to continue serving our Sunday Lunches there throughout August!

"We now plan to re-open our kitchen at our premises in Blacksmiths Yard mid-September so we thought rather than keep you waiting until then, you can still come and get your Sunday Roast fix."

The Palfrey first opened in Blacksmith's Yard in 2016. The following year, it was crowned the city's best bar at the Derby Food and Drink Awards, organised by Marketing Derby, but then a remarkable year became a disastrous one.
